3-WAY AIR/WATER SYRINGE
:
Depress the right button for air operation,
and the left button for water operation.
Depressing both buttons will create a mist.
The syringe features quick-change
autoclavable tips: To remove a tip, press
on the locking collar surrounding the tip
socket and pull the used tip straight out of
the socket (Fig. 42). To insert a new tip,
press locking collar and push tip into
socket as far as it will go. Release ring
and gently tug on tip before using to
ensure that tip is securely locked into
socket.
Syringe Tip Sterilization:
1)
Remove contaminated syringe tip.
2)
Remove all visible signs of
contamination before autoclaving.
3)
Autoclave tip at 132° C (270° F) for ten
minutes.
4)
Sterilize between each patient use.
NOTE
: Since only the tips can be
autoclaved, it is recommended that the
air/water syringe be bagged with a
disposable, single-use plastic sleeve
between each patient use.
OPTIONAL ULTRASONIC SCALER
:
The optional scaler’s handpiece cover and
scaler tips are fully autoclavable. Disinfect
and clean the cover and tips before

temperature of 135º C (275º F) for 10
minutes or 120º C (248º F) for 20 minutes.

the handpiece in any fluid or
spray any fluid directly on the handpiece.
